341. Yet There Is Room

1 "Yet there is room!" The Lamb's bright hall of song,
With its fair glory, beckons thee along;
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

2 Day is declining, and the sun is low;
The shadows lengthen, light makes haste to go:
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

3 The bridal hall is filling for the feast;
Pass in, pass in, and be the Bridegroom's guest;
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

4 It fills, it fills, that hall of jubilee!
Make haste, make haste; 'tis not too full for thee;
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

5 Yet there is room! Still open stands the gate,
The gate of love; it is not yet too late:
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

6 Pass in, pass in, that banquet is for thee;
That cup of everlasting joy is free;
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

7 All heaven is there, all joy! Go in, go in;
The angels beckon thee the prize to win;
Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

8 Ere night that gate may close, and seal thy doom,
Then the last, low, long cry: "No room, no room!"
No room, no room:--Oh, woeful cry, "No room."
